legend!
would be something different.

Similar to the one on a PPC mag cover, I'd never seen one before and I fell in love with the looks then, and I still think it looks cool.
I say make it, then I can copy yours

try watching legends racing on motors tv. they are bike powered rocket ships!

wouldn't say no to one


mistergrumpy - 18/11/09 at 05:55 PM

I'd love one too but I think there'd be too much IVA interference that would detract from the look. Mudguards, engines covers, side repeaters, wipers, head restraints, exhaust edges and so on and so on.

Are you gonna IVA and register it?? Will need cycle wings adding in that case!! Might ruin the lines a fair bit but still cool


Miks15 - 18/11/09 at 06:08 PM

Needs a big V8 in it if you ask me


Rod Ends - 18/11/09 at 06:21 PM

It's a kit


alistairolsen - 18/11/09 at 06:27 PM

They look gorgeous and I loved the one in PPC. If I could find a decent quality grp shell on a roof chopped 32 for a reasonable plrice Id be fitting it instead of the alloy panelling!


mistergrumpy - 18/11/09 at 06:33 PM

I'm sure factory 5 have a UK distributor but only for the Cobra though.

That I like


roadrunner - 18/11/09 at 07:56 PM

I like it, even though it is an American design.
Someone on here asked about hard tops on sevens, this Hot Rod has a removable top and screen if you like.


iank - 18/11/09 at 08:38 PM

The (a) problem putting it on a locost chassis is the doors. Would work better on a backbone or ladder frame chassis.


dr-fastlane - 18/11/09 at 08:54 PM

Yeah, cool I like it!


gottabedone - 18/11/09 at 09:36 PM

Maybe not such a problem with the doors if you route the exhaust under the car - a few are doing this for the IVA now anyway.

Nice bit of kit though!

That kind of crap is all over North America. Sorry, I hate it; that's why I did an English car: they look a lot better.
